SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
To graduate from the College of Engineering and Natural Sciences, students must earn an overall minimum grade point average of 2.0 as well as a 2.0 or above in their major, as defined by the individual department.
No student in the College of Engineering and Natural Sciences may attempt any course in which a grade of F has been received in any two previous attempts, unless permission is obtained.
Students typically complete Exposition and Argumentation (ENGL 1033) during their first semester in residence, followed by Writing for the Professions (ENGL 3003) in the junior year. However, some incoming students will be placed in ENGL 1002, Introduction to College Writing, in order to provide them with additional skills necessary for college-level writing. These students will complete ENGL 1003 and ENGL 1033 in their first two semesters in residence, again followed by Writing for the Professions (ENGL 3003) in the junior year.
Students wishing to enroll in courses that have prerequisites must satisfactorily complete those prerequisites before enrolling in the more advanced class, unless granted written permission by the instructor and their faculty advisor prior to that enrollment.
Students who have failed a course may not subsequently take a proficiency exam as replacement for that course.
